sims On chromebook

I recently bought a Chromebook not even thinking about our PC games not transferring. We have Sims 3&4 with expansion packs can those be downloaded to the Chrimebook?

  • The answer is no - not without a lot of convolutions, anyway. Chrome operating system is not a PC operating system, it doesn't run Windows games. You can run some browser-based games, but unless you want to install Linux and then run a Windows emulator over the Linux over the Chrome OS, you can't run full PC games.

    I don't think so, no. You can always try it, but as far as I know, the programs are installed and run on the pc itself. You could check Google's Play Store to see if there's anything that will play there. Afraid I'm not familiar with Chromebook apps, there may be something from EA there.
